The “rebels” in Libya have clearly established ties to al Qaeda. If you or I were to inadvertently donate $20 dollars to an organization that has 6 degrees of separation links to any kind of group that provides help for al Qaeda, the US government will kick in our doors and rendition us to a far away land indefinitely for giving material support to the terrorists. These are undisputed facts.
So why is it that no one bats an eye when Hillary Clinton proposes to hand over nearly 30 billion dollars to this al Qaeda linked group so that they can buy bigger and better weapons of mass destruction? Let me tell you why.
The money poured in already by outside sources looking to cash-in on the wholesale privatization of Libya like the 20 million ponied up by Great Britain, is running out.
Or so claims Ali Tarhouni, Washington’s man on the inside of the Interim Transitional National Council (TNC). Tarhouni is an American professor of economics at the University of Washington but he’s taken a bit of a leave to serve as the TNC’s minister of finance, oil and economics. Now he has returned to Washington from Benghazi to pass the hat so to speak in D.C. looking for access to the 35 billion or so of the Libyan people’s money that Hillary Clinton froze. You see, he want’s to use the people’s money to return Libya back to the good old days of the corrupt monarchy, the system that was entrenched in Libya before the revolution in 1969 led by one Moammar Gadhafi.
Dr. Tarhouni did an interview for the propaganda network al Jazeera back on Feb 20th 2011 or so in which he claimed that the “revolution” in Libya was really the result of the uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt. He claimed that Gadhafi had no support from the people of Libya and that the vast majority of Libyans were out of work, being starved by Gadhafi, being rounded up and arrested at his slightest whim… that sort of stuff. All of these claims he made while al Jazeera was showing in the background a small band of mercenaries running around in Benghazi looting and burning public buildings. Now of course we have ample footage of massive pro-Gadhafi rallys that have taken place all across Libya. We also have proof that under the Gadhafi regime life in Libya was much better for most Libyans, certainly much better than it was under the rule of the monarchy and the highest standard of living of any African nation.
So effectively what Dr. Tarhouni was doing was simply lying through his teeth.
And now he comes back to America to beg for more money from our congress.
Last week the globalist Libyan Contact Group pledged 250 million dollars for their little CIA backed war, but that money is slated for “humanitarian aid” so Tarhouni says he needs more to buy bigger and better weapons so they can kill more Libyans in the cross-fire.
In an earlier statement, Hillary Clinton made the duality of the Orwellian double-speak crystal clear: she want’s to take money from the Libyan people, money that is being withheld from them right now which is causing undue suffering for millions of Libyans, and she wants to hand it over to the al Qaeda linked “rebel” forces so that they can better attack Libya’s troops and thus neoliberalize the nation that much faster.
Now remember, the Telegraph reported on March 25th of this year that one of the leading members of the “rebel” forces did an interview with an Italian newspaper and he clearly stated that he had been recruiting for the “jihad” against US soldiers in Afghanistan and in fact the “rebel” leader, Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi, had been captured and held by US forces for several years before remarkably they just happened to return him to Libya, where he was freed to go on with whatever tasks the US government had given him.
Hasidi was linked to another CIA destabilization effort in Libya back in 1995-96 called the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, an organization according to a 2007 report, that had deep ties to al Qaeda.
Perhaps the globalists see this as a way of keeping from having to use their own ground troops in the conflict. If they heap billions on the al Qaeda backed “rebels”, they may be able to provide them with enough mercenaries and weapons to sway the conflict to their advantage. And even if it doesn’t work, hundreds of millions will dissapear just like they did in the early stages of Iraq and still more millions will be poured into the military industrial complex and the legitimate government of Libya will suffer even more due to financial hardships and hunger of their people.
So it’s a “win, win, win” even if they lose. In the end, they get the money and at worst they have to find some new propaganda to justify sending in ground troops, which they were going to do anyway.
I don’t think I have seen a more obvious example of the direct connection between the parties of neoliberal globalization and those of the “terror” networks in a long time. Effectively we have a representative of al Qaeda linked rebels coming to congress to ask them to steal money from the people of Libya to use it to crush them… and they will get what they ask for.
Perhaps now we understand why Libya was so important a project that Obama cashed in his Osama trump card to keep it going under the radar.

“We’re faced with the same sanctions as Gadhafi,” he said, referring to U.S. sanctions that have frozen more than $34 billion of Libyan government assets, in addition to U.N. and European sanctions. “I don’t have access to any foreign exchange to cover any purchases, open lines of credits to merchants, so that’s a very challenging aspect to what I do.” MSNBCThe idea of taking the property of the people and handing it over to a few oligarchs and crony corporations is nothing new to Dr. Tarhouni, so this request shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. This is essentially what Tarhouni argued for in 1994 at a panel discussion at the globalist Washington’s Center for Strategic and International Studies.
“Most participants argued for privatization and a strong private sector economy.” That is a statement culled from a report of a panel discussion entitled “Post-Qaddafi Libya: The Prospect and The Promise,” organized by Washington’s Center for Strategic and International Studies in 1994.[1] Dr Ali Tarhouni stated at the conference, “with privatization, entrepreneurs will reach out and get involved in regional cooperation by searching for markets.”[2] Is that what the long-planned, well-funded “spontaneous revolts” now toppling regimes like a house of cards is actually about?” Dr. K. R. BoltonJust to you an idea of the kinds of people who make up the Center for Strategic and International Studies, this is a small sampling of their Board of Trustees. You think these guys would have a personal interest in the wholesale privatization of Libya?

Hunt — Chairman of the Board, President and CEO, Hunt Consolidated, Inc., William A. Schreyer — Chairman of the Executive Committee, CSIS; Chairman Emeritus, Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., Frederick B. Whittemore — Advisory Director, Morgan StanleyAs you can see, this “spontaneous revolt” has been 15 years in the making and one of the key players installed by US interests has been waiting in the wings for a very long time. It was also cultivated by representatives of some of the wealthiest and most powerful corporations in the world. There is a lot at stake here.

The rebels’ Transitional National Council says it needs $2bn-$3bn (£1.2bn-£1.8bn) in the coming months for military salaries, food, medicine and other basic supplies…. Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the US was trying to free more than $30bn it had frozen in Libyan assets.If anyone thinks for a minute that the 30 billion or so of the people’s money in Libya won’t be used to buy weapons from various arms dealers linked to nations that make up the Libyan Contact Group, I got a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.
She said the government wanted “to tap some portion of those assets owned by Gaddafi and the Libyan government in the United States, so we can make those funds available to help the Libyan people“. BBC May 5th 2011

“Even though the LIFG is not part of the al-Qaeda organisation, the United States military’s West Point academy has said the two share an “increasingly co-operative relationship”. In 2007, documents captured by allied forces from the town of Sinjar, showed LIFG emmbers made up the second-largest cohort of foreign fighters in Iraq, after Saudi Arabia.One would be foolish to ignore the obvious possibilities that 30 billion or so could produce in Libya. There’s already a wave of mercenaries in that country holding their own against a weakened Libyan military and with a new infusion of hard cash potentially tens of thousands more could weave their way into the fight with promises of wealth and power and position possibly in the newly neoliberalized post Gadhafi Libya.
Earlier this month, al-Qaeda issued a call for supporters to back the Libyan rebellion, which it said would lead to the imposition of “the stage of Islam” in the country.” Telegraph
